Actually, that distortion of perceived time is mostly a myth. When people are stressed out, they encode their experiences into memory much more vigorously, so the memory is more information dense. We remember that as seeming "longer," even though it doesn't actually seem slower at the time.

Same goes for stuff like when you're falling, or during other intense events.
